Live Your Life (Luke Hemmings)

beautiful 'ch.1

She was facing the groud, shutting out the world around her. Her hood falling over her cheeks, her arms securely holding textbooks as she walked away from another day of school. As she arrived to the gravel pathway leading to her house, she took her hood off, letting herself show. She then ran to her house and up the front steps, stepping into the house. No one else was home. She took a shaky breath as she set down her texttbooks softly on the table, walking up to her room after.

It'd been years since she's ever had a good day at school. Ever since she left primary, nothing ever went her way. Bullying, peer pressure, and losing people by the minute. Everybody thought she was the jinx, ruining everyone's lives. Even her own.

She sat on her bed, pulling out her phone and computer from her desk drawer, crossing her legs. She opened up her fan account on Tumblr, an account she had made for Luke's band, 5 Seconds Of Summer. They weren't that big, but she wanted them to be. To make it big time. Her phone buzzed next to her computer.

She stifled a laugh and shook her head, replying to her idiot bestfriend.

She set her phone back down again before she heard a knock on the door. She raised an eyebrow, confused. He couldn't have been that fast, she thought to herself as she headed down the stairs. She stopped at her front door and looked out the peephole. Michael was standing there with Ashton, Calum, and Luke. She laughed as she opened her front door.

Michael came in first, tackling her in a hug. Calum came in second, joining in on the hug. Luke also joined in while Ashton stood there awkwardly. They all got up and laughed. Ashton coughed awkwardly.

"Oh, sorry Ash." Calum apologized. "Ashton, this is Katriana."

Katri stuck her hand out for him to shake. "Nice to meet you, Ashton. You can call me Katri." She smiled. He returned the favor, shaking her hand.

"And you can call me anytime." Ashton joked, adding a wink. Calum rolled his eyes and Michael smirked. Luke shook his head, trying not to laugh. Katri laughed.

"Sorry, Ash, I've already got my eye on someone else." Katri replied, smirking as the 3 boys surrounded her instantly.

"You do?!" They said in unison. Katri nodded, hiding her smile. "Yep, and he's in this room right now."

They all stood frozen. Michael dragged Katriana back up to her room and stopped at the middle of the staircase for a moment. "One moment, thank you." He told them before running up and shutting the door to her room behind them. Katri sat at the edge of her bed as Michael stood in front of her, crossing his arms.

"Spill the beans, Rabe." Michael said sternly. Katri rolled her eyes.

"Don't call me by my last name, please." She replied. He nodded.

"Fine, but still," Michael said, now giving Katri puppy eyes. "Please tell me who you like!" He cried.

Katri sighed of defeat, running a hand through her hair, getting it out of her face.

"I've been thinking," She started, "about getting a stud on my nose. Woudn't that be cool? Like a little diamond on my nose and-"

"Katriana." Michael hissed. She huffed.

"Fine." Michael smiled triumphentally.

"Do you really want to know?" She said, unsure. Michael's eyes widened.

"Oh fuck, you like me, don't you?" He said as he stood up pacing around the room.

Katri scrunched her nose in disgust. "Ew, hell no, wait-no, no way in fucking hell. You're like my older brother, that'd be weird."

"Just tell me, God damnit!" He huffed.

"Luke." She whispered.

"Who?" He asked, not hearing her.

"Luke!" She shouted. Michael smirked, heading towards the door. He opened it, finding a blushing Luke, a smiling Calum, and a laughing Ashton.

"Y-You like me?" Luke stuttered. He scratched the back of his neck and cleared his throat. "I mean-uh, I-I like you too, Katri." He said and she shook her head, smiling. Michael pushed Calum and Ashton out of his way. "Use protection!" Michael hollered and shut the door. Katriana blushed and Luke grinned. He took a step closer to her and grabbed her hand softly.

"Will you be mine?" He asked quietly, knowing that the 3 boys were outside the door listening.

"Yes." She replied, standing on the tips of her feet to give him a kiss on the cheek. He moved his head in time for her to kiss him on the lips instead. Katri blushed and Luke smiled. He hugged her and they stood there for a bit.

"Should I get a nose stud?" Katri asked Luke randomly. He looked down at her and studied her face.

"No," He replied. "You're beautiful the way you are."
